Beyond grateful to celebrate this anniversary for TSA. The path has not always been straight, but the journey has taught me so much…Like “if you’re not laughing, you’re crying”, so we laugh! A LOT! 😂 And to be kind. Treat people as you want to be treated. Be passionate. Learn something new everyday.
I’m so grateful for this work family. Liz, Jules, Yaz, Brad, Kai, Ellie, Ozzie…and all the others that make up our family. We are where we are because of you and your dedication. ❤️
But equally grateful for our couple’s and clients that make up the rest of our family! Thank you for entrusting us for your most important day! ❤️
Here’s to this next EXTRAORDINARY year!!! 🥂

This post isn’t easy to write but on 12/15/22, coordinated her last event with the TSA/DW team. We wish her nothing but the best as she starts a new job and follows her passion to become a health + fitness coach! While it’s not goodbye forever, we will miss her bubbly personality and incredible organization. Please wish Julia good luck in the comments! WE 🤍 JULIA

With her absence comes an opportunity! If you have been following along and waiting for the right moment to apply to join our team: that time is NOW! We are searching for an Event Coordinator with a positive attitude to focus primarily on off-site events while also helping with events

If this sounds like you or someone you know, please email [email protected] with your resume!

How fun is this mini throwback dessert station!? When we met with Tina and John for their menu consult, they truly wanted a menu to represent the two of them.

We ended their wedding celebration night with homemade oatmeal cream pies as well as zebra cakes, star crunch and hostess swirl cupcakes.

Now that the chilly, Fall weather is upon us, we are reminiscing on warmer weather here ! Cathy + Pat celebrated with all of their loved ones back in August and we were so honored to be a part of their special day.

Pictured is our candied bacon-wrapped dates with goat cheese and pecans - a fan favorite for any season! Also pictured is our grilled mahi with thai coconut curry, shoestring fried sweet potato, julienne show peas and cilantro.

Your wedding menu should be a reflection of the two of you and that is why a menu has never been done twice! We take pride in always thinking outside of the box and no idea is too small or too big. With our restaurant style kitchen on site, the possibilities are endless!
